I am listing my 1964 vw bug. I am trying to finish another of my vehicles, bug this one is so darn clean and original, other than the 2" dropped spindles, and dropped in back. This would be perfect for driving as is, painting and restoring.... 
There is original brochures, showing the car they picked out new. Sold here in colorado brand new at mt. States vw. I have never had one this clean as far as damage or rust, as it is only starting to bubble on very lower corners, and very very small amount on 1 rear bumper mount, and a small touch inside rear wheel well as shown. It has never been hit, and all panels line up nice, doors shut like they should, as does hood and rear deck. Twist handle locks down deck lid, and inside hood release works, and shuts tight with a finger push. Nose is super nice where the tire sits, and bumper attaches. No rust, no hits. Pan is super clean, title matches front tag, and vin, and still retains its original 1200 engine, with 6 volts. Car has been painted at some time but just as a protectant, no body work done, as there are small dings on fenders still. Seats have cheap seat covers, as the original brown and tan striped seats are underneath, but in need of recovering. Headliner is nice, but needs repair around window. The radio does not work.
The headlights all work- high and low, turn signals, running lights, horn, dash lights all work, even interior Light comes on with either door. Just a nice un messed with 50 year old vw. Last of the small windows. The heater cranks on this, it is hot, and defroster works great!!! No smell with windows rolled up and heat on.. Clean heat. Still has some of its original tools in the nose. Gets lots of looks where it goes. 
The car runs great, fast idle works, and kicks down. Car is quite... Sounds like a vw. I was driving it yesterday, and ran perfect, down the highway at 55-65 no problem. I put about 80 miles on it with temp being about 85 out. It rides good to. The previous owner put the dropped spindles on the front, and lowered the rear also. I was going to put some brm wheels on it, and leave it alone. The doors still lock with its original key. Good color the panama beige. I have some paperwork from 1990 when it went in for some service and had 68,000 miles on it then. Just a nice un-hit almost 100% rust free early vw. This will be very hard to replace, or upgrade for the money...
It is colorado titled and insured in my name. Car will not be released until funds 100% clear my bank! cashiers check! or personal- either. Please don't show up with either prepared to take it, unless verified Wells Fargo check... Or of corse cash... The reserve on this will be under $5,000!!!! I will include a low buy it now, but once reserve is met, it will go away... Please ask any questions if you have any before bidding. If you have less than 10+ FEEDBACKS! you mugs email before bidding! or I may cancel your bid. These are getting very hard to find, rust free and unhit, and a 64 or earlier. 
I have tried to describe his as accurate as possible, not some 1 line description as a lot of cars listed.

I forgot to mention Also----- I have a new 6 volt battery recently installed, and car does have its spare, just took it out for nose photos....

Recharge Wrap-up: Smart Ready for Rent, MOIA comes to US in 2018

Mon, Dec 12 2016

Daimler is launching its "Smart Ready to Rent" service in Europe. Beginning this month in German and French cities, the rental scheme bridges the gap between short-term Car2go rentals and longer leases. Customers book the Smart model of their choice – including the emissions-free Electric Drive and the hotter Brabus versions – for a period of one day up to three months. As such, Smart Ready to Rent is useful to those who live outside of an urban center. Users can book a car online or through a dealer, and vehicles are collected and returned at the dealership. Read more at Green Car Congress. Volkswagen will launch its MOIA mobility arm in the US in 2018. The recently announced brand will take on public transportation as a competitor with services such as ride hailing and car sharing. VW is looking into forging partnerships with the likes of technology and ride sharing companies. The automaker also expects to show an electric shuttle-type concept in 2017 for pooling services, but will use the three-row VW Atlas crossover in the meantime until that concept reaches production. Look to see MOIA emerging in major cities along the US coasts. Read more at Automotive News. A new report from Lux Research suggests that most EV batteries are better off being recycled than reused. Once lithium-ion batteries have outlived their usefulness for automotive duty, some automakers (BMW, Nissan, and Toyota included) are looking at ways to use their remaining capacity, such as for stationary energy storage. The new report, though, says that reusing batteries offers "questionable returns on account of reduced performance." Better to be like Tesla, and just recycle them. Read more at Hybrid Cars.

North American production of foreign marques to jump in 2014

Sun, 23 Dec 2012

Wards Auto has released its North American Light Vehicle Production Forecast for 2014, and the report predicts foreign manufacturers will increase production on the continent some 3.9 percent by 2014. If accurate, that should see 123,000 additional cars, trucks and vans produced in North America, swelling the total number of units produced both by domestic and foreign manufacturers to 16.9 million light vehicles from a projected 15.6 million in 2013. Much of the increase can be attributed to the fact that Toyota intends to produce another car at its Blue Springs, MS plant as well as a new Lexus model at its Georgetown, KY facility in a year's time.
Likewise, Volkswagen intends to move production of a currently imported model to its plant in Puebla, Mexico. Daimler, Honda, Nissan and Mazda also plan to build additional models on North American soil for the first time. Around two-thirds of the new North American manufacturing will take place in Mexico, helping the country soak up a full 20 percent of the content's automotive production for the first time.
